This year I am not going to buy any seeds. I am going to use up all last years. Supplemented by ones that are given away free on magazines.
I was a bit restricted by the weather last year. So the stash is reasonable. Will see how I go. Or will I be tempted when I visit the local garden centre?
This season we have to grow more bitter melon, Ampalaya,Momordica Charantia for us and for market. Because of this we need any bamboo trellies for climbing. I hope so we have both enough.Greetings, ThaiGer
Probably beetroot, onions, garlic, french/runner beans and peas, salad stuff, spinach and chad. Kohl, will try carrots again, courgette's, squash and brussels, I'm sure I've other seeds, nearly forgot - spuds..
In the GH it's going to be cues, toms, chillies, peppers, aubergines and I've some yard long beans which need warmth.
Rhubarb, strawberries, gooseberries, blueberries and currants which were mainly eaten by birds last year or failed to fruit, hoping for more success this time around.
I am going to be growing barbabietola di chioggia and boltardy beetroot, usual mixture of lettuce, cuban black, money maker and tubling tom (in a basket) tomatoes. Burpless tasty green cucumbers, sunstripe courgettes, climbing french beans, red and white onions and for the first year ever I'm going to give aubergines a try (and pray for plenty of sunshine!). I can't wait!
You can see how I get on by following my veg diary if you so desire!
Too many to mention because Wyvale's 50p seed sell off sent me all of a quiver, I'm sure some of them won't make it in the ground this year. I've got red and white onions on the go, shallots, garlic, some peas which were supposed to be fine over winter (very sceptical about that though) and I have been stock piling fruit bushes from various sales/special offers (strawberries, gooseberries, blueberries, raspberries, honey berries, cranberries, blackberries, blackcurrants and red/white currants).
I can't wait to be able to get out and start planting, especially when the weather is like this. Fingers crossed we all have a warm and sunny year.
I dont have a large garden but I have my seeds at the ready!..Tomatoes, onions, courgettes, lettuces (all sorts!), carrots, radish..roll on the spring!
I shall try cherry tomato again , red onion, spring onion, lettuce varieties, cucumber , basil, strawberries, chillies, and beet root . All in pots but some mostly in the greenhouse unless that is we get a wonderful summer ....hmmm ????
I'm going to concentrate on trying to grow 7 different varieties of Chilli ! Just waiting for this cold front to pass before sowing the seeds in my lovely new heated propogator!
